After having lunch at Tang En's place, Coco finally understood what "delicious" truly meant.
Today, she realized that food wasn't only cooked by roasting and boiling. It could also be cooked by frying, stir-frying, steaming, and other dazzling methods.
Different cooking methods brought about different tastes and flavors, especially the sweet and sour pork ribs and sliced pork that Tang En had personally cooked. Coco almost swallowed her tongue.
How could food be so delicious?!
Compared to the lunch she had at noon, the food she had eaten before was simply trash!
After eating this unimaginably delicious meal, the most direct result was that Coco didn't want to leave.
In the end, it was Vanilla, who had a stronger resistance, who forcefully dragged Vanilla, who was staring at Tang En, away.
If he hadn't dragged her away, she would probably have shamelessly rushed over to hug his thigh in order to continue eating delicious food.
Don't doubt, she really could do it.
Watching Vanilla and Coco leave in the dragon carriage, Yaya curled her lips in disdain. "Tsk, what an ignorant country bumpkin."
"Oh?"
Tang En retracted his gaze and said with a faint smile, "I wonder who was the one who couldn't help but cry the entire day after eating Ellington's food …"
"Sh-shut up!"
Yaya's face flushed red. "That was just your imagination! That's right! It was an illusion! "
"Oh, I'm quite curious. Do puppets also have a sense of taste and digestion?"
"That's why I have to explain a few times! Although we transformed our bodies, we still retained our original functions! "
"That means we still need to go to the toilet?"
"No need! We can completely absorb the nutrients in the food. Isn't that amazing!? "
In a sense, not only was it amazing, but it was also very convenient …
"Is it okay to give birth?"
"Only, only this is a little …"
"Sure enough, smart girls don't get pregnant …"
"Although I don't understand what you're saying, I feel like you said something very rude! Apologize! I want an apology! "
"There's never been a precedent of a master apologizing to a maid."
Tang En smiled and turned around. "I'll leave the cleaning to you in the afternoon. I won't make things difficult for you. Tomorrow, they'll come to renovate this place. By then, it will be dirty, so you just need to clean the hall and the bedroom."
"If that's the case, I might as well clean up after the renovation!"
Yaya pulled Tang En's arm and said coquettishly, "It's not easy to come to this place. Give me a holiday. I also want to enjoy the scenery here."
"Oh? Haven't you been here before? "
"Yes, but that was a thousand years ago."
"Then hurry up and get to work, and then I'll give you a break."
"So annoying! Not gentle at all! Hmph! "
Yaya stomped her foot and quickly disappeared.
"Big brother!"
After Yaya left, Tang En had just laid down and was about to enjoy a leisurely afternoon when Elijah ran over quickly and sat on Tang En's body.
Tang En's face flashed with a trace of unnaturalness. He held Elijah's butt and shifted her position.
Elijah was now thirteen years old. Compared to when she was thin and weak, after a year of supplementing nutrition, the little girl was now quite healthy. The places that should have grown fat had already grown, and her weight had also increased. When she pounced and sat on Tang En, she hit some of the more awkward places. Tang En also felt awkward.
"The assigned task has been completed! Can we go out and play now? "
Elijah held a mithril plate as if she was presenting a treasure. On it were rows of very fine miniature magic circles. That was the homework that Tang En gave her when he went out.
"So fast!?"
Tang En was a little surprised. Because of Lady Calamity, Elijah's talent was, of course, top-notch. However, her current control was far from that level, so she needed to practice.
"Nola, did you help her?"
Tang En suddenly remembered that he did not see Nola for most of the day. She did not come out to make trouble, nor did she pull his hair.
"No, no!"
Nola covered her face, obviously a little guilty.
Other than Tang En, Nola only had a good relationship with Elijah and Aiguin. When Tang En did not have time to play with her, she would go to Elijah to play. It was normal for her to help her at this time.
"You …"
Tang En sighed. But when he saw Elijah's wronged and hopeful look, he really did not have the heart to scold her. He did not dare to scold her.
Who knew if Lady Calamity would seek revenge after retrieving the part of the sealed memory? ,
"In that case, let's go out for a walk."
Although Khal and the others did not return to the tavern to celebrate their victory, and Angus was dragged out for a drink by Razortooth, Yaya was taking care of the mansion. There was no need to worry about the safety of the teleportation circle. So, Tang En dragged Elijah out.
Although he said that he was taking Elijah out to play, in fact, Tang En's real concern was the news that was circulating on the streets.
The news of Vanilla's return had been completely spread, and the heated discussions on the streets affected their next move.
Along the way, Tang En heard the name of Vanilla's Saintess from the discussions of the Orcs several times. Although he did not know how far the news had spread, at least it meant that the news had spread widely enough.
The person behind the scenes should have also received the news, right?
For some reason, Tang En suddenly thought of Groma.
The schemer who had his eyes on the Saintess.
Prince Groma who was corrupted by Chaos.
If he was not mistaken, it should be the same person.
In the Ryan Empire, the only people who would dare to attack the Saintess were those who had their brains fried by the power of Chaos.
"Does it look good?"
Elijah's voice drew Tang En's attention back. Looking at Elijah who was holding the bone sculpture, Tang En smiled and rubbed her hair. "It looks good."
The Orc boss immediately put on a smile. "Human, you have good taste. This is a hair ornament carved by Balmoral's tusk using our traditional carving skills. You can't see such good things in the human world! Buy it, your daughter will love it! It only costs ten gold coins now! "
My … daughter?
The corner of Tang En's mouth twitched, and he turned to leave.
Damn it! Am I that old?!
Perhaps noticing the change in Tang En's expression, the boss hurriedly tried to remedy the situation. "Uh, I mean, your sister — Well, I'm not good at hin, but I'm not good at grease. (My Loenese isn't very good, so please forgive me if there's anything wrong.)"
Damn it, you were talking so well just now, and you're not good at it in the blink of an eye?
Tang En pulled a long face and said angrily, "Do you really think I'm stupid? The most valuable part of Balmoral's body is its leather. Since when can its tusk be sold as a specialty? "
"You can't say that — Uh, it's said that —"
"Stop pretending, I'm tired of watching you talk like that."
The boss was immediately embarrassed. However, the Orcs of the first class subspecies had exuberant hair, so no one could see their faces blushing.
"Sir, you can't say that. After all, Balmoral is a specialty of the Ryan Empire. Its skin is like that, and so is its tusk. But since you're so knowledgeable, why don't you take one gold coin and treat it as a gift? My goods are usually very popular among the merchants of the human kingdoms. "
Tang En looked at him expressionlessly and said, "I know that the Leppard Leopards are very strong in combat and are proud of their explosive speed, but I've never heard of the Leppard Leopards having traditional carving skills. When it comes to carving, no matter who it is, they'll think of the Fox Foxes, right?"
The boss, who had been repeatedly slapped in the face, was even more embarrassed. "We also humbly studied …"
"Based on the materials and craftsmanship, I can only give you fifty copper coins at most for this item, no more."
"Sir, that's too little! It's not even enough to cover the cost of the materials! "
The boss exclaimed and said, "Fifty silver coins! Only fifty silver coins! "
"A large bag of Balmoral's tusk costs one silver coin. Even if I really don't know the market, can't you get the guy next door who sells magical beast materials to set up a stall next door?"
Tang En pointed to the stall next to him. There were bags of magical beast materials on display, and Balmoral's tusk happened to be among them. It cost one silver coin a large bag, and it looked to be about a kilogram.
The boss was immediately embarrassed. He had even exposed his underwear to the other party. How could he sell this item!
At this time, Tang En suddenly said, "I can give you ten silver coins to buy it."
"Really?"
The boss was very surprised that his business, which had flown away, could be reopened.
"As long as you answer a few of my questions."
"No problem, as long as it doesn't involve state secrets —"
The boss paused for a moment, then shrugged and said, "— Then again, state secrets won't let me know, so you can ask away."
"Here's the money. Take it first."
"Oh, Irus silver coins, hard currency."
The boss took a look and found that it was not the watered silver coins that were circulated in the previous dynasty. He immediately beamed with joy.
"I want to ask, is the news of the return of Her Holiness the Saintess of Vanilla true?"
"Ah, sir, you're also concerned about this matter? Could it be that you're a follower of the Vulcan Church? "
"Answer my question."
"Of course it's true!"
The boss smiled and said, "Now all of Bul-Kathos knows, and it's said that someone saw Her Holiness the Saintess of Vanilla praying in the church. It's said that she will go to the Holy Cathedral of Fire the day after tomorrow for her return baptism."
Has this matter already been spread around?
Tang En nodded, then suddenly asked, "I want to ask, what's the evaluation of Prince Groma's reputation?"
The boss's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Tang En warily. "Why are you asking this?"
Tang En silently took out a gold coin.
The boss looked around, then quickly took the gold coin and hid it. He moved closer to Tang En and whispered in his ear, "If the First Prince Groma really inherits the throne, the Empire will probably be in chaos."
